Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Stonewater
Cost burden runs 64% here against 40.1% across McHenry County. The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. Average gross rent is $2,021, 30% above the McHenry average.
The voucher gap is 14.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Food insecurity runs 10.2% against 17.8% nationally.
That is riskier than roughly 35% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 11% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
Social vulnerability reads 2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the IL average is 5.1, so this tract runs 1.4 points cooler.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. It tracks the McHenry County average of 4.3 closely.
Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $115,625.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
